Dr Alex W Robertson | Oxford University | In-situ TEM of materials

Welcome

We research the fundamental nanoscale materials processes that occur when an energy material is operated. Degradation mechanisms that occur in energy materials, including batteries and catalysts, are investigated by using the latest techniques in transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
